Pop Culture Thursday!! In this jam-packed episode, Jared tackles the NBA Cup drama and offers his hilarious ideas on how to make it better. Then, he dives into Taylor Swift's birthday celebrations—what do you get for someone who has it all? Plus, Craig and Austen from Southern Charm open a bar, and Jared has thoughts. Stick around for listener emails, dating dilemmas, and, of course, a luxury lounge segment you don’t want to miss. It’s all the opinions you didn’t know you needed, delivered with Jared’s signature wit and humor!

First up, Jared shares his excitement over an article about Craig Conover and Austin Kroll of Southern Charm, who just opened a new bar in Charleston, South Carolina. Jared's longtime friend Keith Benjamin is their partner in this venture, and he takes us down memory lane, sharing stories about their friendship, Keith’s rise in the hospitality world, and how Charleston became Keith’s playground for success. From opening Uptown Social to now co-owning The Cozy Den, Keith’s journey inspires and entertains. Jared even includes an exclusive quote from Keith about the vibe, food, and freezing martinis at their new spot.

But the fun doesn’t stop there. Jared gives us his take on the bar’s aesthetic, menu highlights (hello, French onion dip and fox wings), and what makes this bar a must-visit spot. Whether you're planning a bachelor party or just love elevated tavern food, The Cozy Den might be your next destination.

Later, Jared switches gears to the world of NYC real estate—well, sort of. Supermodel Gigi Hadid’s recent revelation about dealing with a rat problem in her New York apartment gets Jared talking about the universal woes of NYC living. Whether you're a billionaire or living in a tiny studio, it turns out no one is safe from the city’s infamous rodent invasion.

Jared unpacks the latest drama surrounding Vanderpump Rules alum Tom Sandoval. Jared humorously reflects on Sandoval’s inability to escape his cheating reputation, questioning whether the public fight between Sandoval and his girlfriend, Victoria Lee Robinson, is just another ploy to keep his name in the headlines. Jared’s take? “Tiger doesn’t change his stripes—drama is Sandoval’s natural habitat.”

Next, Jared turns his sights on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Christmas card, sharing his own amusing tradition of ranking holiday cards with a friend. He critiques the inclusion of their production company, Archewell Productions, on the card, and questions the hype over a “rare photo” of their kids. His candid commentary pokes at the couple’s balancing act between seeking privacy and leveraging their royal titles for public interest.

Jared reads about Victoria Beckham clearing up plastic surgery rumors, marveling at how an interview about her nose becomes a full-blown PR moment to plug her contouring skills and beauty line. His lighthearted analysis, paired with witty skepticism, makes for an entertaining exploration of celebrity branding and public image.

He dives into Jim Carrey's "retirement" comments and why the internet got it wrong, Timothée Chalamet's bold Bob Dylan-inspired look, and what makes him a showstopper on and off-screen. Then, Jared dissects the PR spectacle around Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's relationship, decoding the art of the perfectly curated boyfriend narrative. Finally, he shares his take on the NBA Cup's declining ratings and why players (and fans) might need a reason to care.

Podcast” with Jordana Abraham of Betches, where they discuss their takes on modern dating with issues ranging from apps to hookups to relationships.

This week on the JTrain Podcast, Jared Freid sits down with his hilarious friend and comedian Nimesh Patel for a packed Chit Chat Wednesday! They dive into Nimesh’s life as a new dad, sharing what’s surprised him most about fatherhood. Jared also quizzes Nimesh about the looming TikTok ban and how the app has played a major role in his career—leading to a shocking revelation that leaves Jared speechless. Lastly, they get into the mysterious drones over New Jersey, sparking wild theories and laughs.

Plus, Nimesh reflects on his roots in New Jersey, shares why Indian comedians like him and Akash Singh crush it in New Brunswick, and talks about adding an eighth sold-out show to his run this week. Whether they’re debating aliens, AI, or the best way to roast Chris Christie, Jared and Nimesh’s conversation is as entertaining as it is unfiltered.

The two break down the wild, unpredictable ways performers make money—from TikTok paychecks to finding five figures sitting unclaimed—and what happens when comedians finally figure out the passive income game.

Nimesh also gets real about life as a new father: the sleepless nights, constant learning, and humbling realization that babies don’t come with an instruction manual. It’s a mix of comedy, relatable truths, and behind-the-scenes stories of juggling stand-up success, finances, and family.

Whether you're a creator, a parent, or someone who just wants to know where your money might be hiding—this episode’s for you!

It's Ticked Off Tuesday!! Jared channels your frustrations and gives your gripes the spotlight they deserve. Is there something driving you nuts? Something seemingly small, but it’s eating away at your soul? This is the place where your problems matter—no one here will tell you to “chill out” or “look at the bigger picture.”

This week, Jared recounts a wild night in Des Moines, Iowa, where holiday party chaos took center stage, and offers his take on why not every party is built for a comedy show. Plus, Jared shares what makes the hustle of stand-up comedy so uniquely frustrating yet rewarding.

Want your gripe to be heard? Subscribe to Jared’s Patreon for early access and priority placement on Ticked Off Tuesday. Join the fun, vent your frustrations, and let Jared tell you why you’re absolutely right to be ticked off!

Jared dives deep into the trials and tribulations of travel, customer service fails, and holiday chaos. A listener who works in sales qualified for their company's prestigious President's Club trip, but they have zero interest in going. Why? The destination is an obscure coastal European city that takes three flights and 15 hours to reach. Plus, they'd need to pay for childcare for a week just to attend. The listener laments the lack of a cash bonus alternative and struggles to find anyone in real life who will sympathize with their gripe about a "free luxury vacation." Their closing plea? "Why couldn't it be Greece or Italy?"

One listener is ticked off that post-pandemic, malls in Austin now open at 11 a.m. instead of 10 a.m. For a busy parent who loves in-person shopping (and avoids the hassle of online returns), this hour difference ruins their limited kid-free time. They argue malls should even open at 9 a.m. to better serve shoppers during the holidays. Bonus complaint: the disappearance of 24-hour stores and restaurants that used to be staples pre-pandemic.

Another listener attended the Vienna Boys Choir performance at Carnegie Hall, only to be distracted by the woman next to them tapping her foot out of rhythm. The listener compares this to the U Up podcast debate about singing during movies but makes a clear distinction—tickets to Wicked are cheap and plentiful, while Carnegie Hall's Vienna Boys Choir is a once-a-year, premium experience. The kicker? Even the venue hands out cough drops to minimize disruptions, yet this woman thought constant foot-tapping was appropriate. The listener's husband says they sound like a 70-year-old British father, but Jared is ready to join in the complaint chorus.

It’s a hilarious episode of relatable gripes, classic JTrain tangents, and Jared’s signature ability to turn life’s inconveniences into comedic gold. Plus, three listener complaints that round out the show with even more laughs.

It’s a Mailbag Monday on the JTrain Podcast! Jared is coming to you live from Des Moines, Iowa, where he’s soaking in the cozy, small-town vibes, indulging in breakfast adventures, and tapping into some new material. Jared shares some travel tales, thoughts on diners (Team Perkins vs. Cracker Barrel, anyone?), and why suggestions—even the unsolicited ones—can open new doors in your brain. Whether it’s a relationship dilemma, friendship faux pas, or an “Am I The A$$hole?” moment, Jared is here for you!

In this episode of the JTrain Podcast, Jared tackles two listener dilemmas that delve into the complexities of dating and communication. First, he responds to a letter from a woman grappling with rejection after disclosing her HSV status to someone she deeply connected with. Jared explores the challenges of breaking stigmas in dating, the importance of timing in vulnerable conversations, and how a partner’s reaction can reveal deeper incompatibilities.

Next, Jared unpacks a perplexing scenario from a listener who faced mixed signals while dating someone passionate about dance. From a rejected kiss to an awkward encounter at a music festival, Jared dissects the subtle cues and communication gaps that can derail a budding connection.

This episode is a thoughtful exploration of vulnerability, boundaries, and how to navigate dating’s many gray areas. Tune in for candid advice and practical takeaways for handling rejection, managing expectations, and understanding the signals we give and receive. Listen, laugh, and share with a friend who needs a dose of honest advice!

Welcome back to Chit Chat Wednesday on the JTrain Podcast! This week, Jared Freid sits down with his hilarious friend and comedian, Liza Treyger. If you've heard Liza on the pod before, you know this conversation will go in a million directions—touching on everything from comedy life to random personal stories—changing topics every five seconds in the best way possible.

Liza announces her Netflix special, Night Owl, dropping on January 28th (a JTrain Podcast exclusive!). Jared shares his experience opening for the taping and gushes about how funny, personal, and downright fantastic the special is—so mark your calendars, folks!

The duo dives into the highs and lows of stand-up: from crafting new material to the struggle of letting old jokes go. They also share stories about Thanksgiving antics, sporting events (Bulls vs. Celtics, anyone?), and how Liza managed to show up to a basketball game accidentally repping the wrong team.

Prepare for nonstop laughs, chaotic tangents, and a behind-the-scenes look at what makes comedians tick. Don’t forget to comment and let Jared and Liza know what topics you'd love to hear more about next time.

he two dive into everything from hidden bar gems in Chelsea (including a bar full of glitter balls) to Gotham Comedy Club's eternal scaffolding. Liza shares her unique family New Year's traditions—think Russian TV concerts, backgammon marathons, and an unsettling chicken soup gelatin dish.

The conversation gets delightfully off-track as they discuss Simpsons-themed NFL games, the best ways to prank family with an Aura Frame, and Liza’s growing troll collection (she only collects the baby ones). Jared and Liza also delve into more serious topics, including the state of healthcare, corporate greed, and the bizarre Batman-like true crime story capturing national attention.

It's Ticked Off Tuesday! Jared dives into the wildest, most frustrating complaints from listeners. First up, one listener vents about mandatory attendance meetings at work—because there’s nothing more infuriating than fighting LA traffic for hours only to find out the meeting has been canceled last minute. Jared breaks down why these pointless meetings are a universal workplace scourge!

Next, we’re heading to Thanksgiving, where a listener shares the anxiety-inducing experience of being the “new person” at their boyfriend’s family dinner. With limited seating options, they were stuck choosing between balancing a plate on their lap, waiting for a dining table spot to free up, or awkwardly standing in the kitchen. Jared unpacks the unwritten rules of hosting!

Finally, we hear about a workplace drama straight out of the future: a listener’s new coworker accused them of using AI to write their reports because their grammar was “too perfect.” Jared hilariously breaks down why this coworker might need to calm down with the AI paranoia and why being too good at your job shouldn’t lead to workplace drama.

It's Mailbag Monday!! 💌Jared dives into a juicy email about an interesting power dynamic in the medical field. A 28-year-old medical student finds herself connecting with a 32-year-old attending physician, and sparks are flying! But with a relationship so tangled in professional boundaries, is it worth pursuing or should she tread carefully until after grades are in? Jared offers advice on navigating the blurred lines of attraction, the workplace, and consent while adding his comedic take on modern dating dilemmas. Tune in for this thoughtful (and hilarious) episode that tackles love, career, and finding balance.

Jared then dives into a listener's dilemma about a promising connection that fizzled out unexpectedly🫤 After a few dates with a guy she met on Bumble, she thought she might have found "the one," but things took an awkward turn, leading to his sudden disappearance. Was he just looking for something casual, or did the lack of physical intimacy derail what could have been something serious? Jared explores the intricacies of dating, emotional investments, and the tough reality of mixed signals. Tune in for some classic advice on navigating early relationships and why "too nice" isn't always the problem. Listen now to hear Jared's take on why people bail, how to avoid getting caught up in the wrong signals, and what to do when you're left wondering, "What happened?"

It's Pop Culture Thursday on the JTrain Podcast! Jared dives into the hottest headlines, starting with an unbelievable listener-submitted story about a woman sneaking onto a Delta flight—travel drama at its finest. Next, Jared unpacks Sabrina Carpenter's recent break-up, analyzing the relationship dynamics and media coverage.

Finally, Jared gives his take on Leo and Brittany's wild Miami trip, dissecting the gossip and the internet's reaction. Plus, Jared shares his thoughts on Khloé Kardashian’s shocking accusations against her therapist, Beyoncé vs. Taylor Swift fans battling it out over Billboard’s “Greatest Pop Star of the 21st Century,” and more.

we dive into Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan’s breakup timeline—did they ever really date, or was this a Hollywood situationship for the headlines? Jared plays relationship detective to decode their “on and off” status and the strategic press moves keeping Barry’s likability intact.

Next, Love Is Blind star Leo Brody is back in the spotlight, trying to rewrite his image post-show. Jared is not buying the nice-guy pivot and delivers a hilariously scathing breakdown of Leo’s Miami trip and his “friend zone” PR strategy. 🚨Spoiler alert: Jared predicts we haven’t seen the last of Leo’s antics.

Finally, a jaw-dropping true story about a 57-year-old stowaway who snuck onto a flight from NYC to Paris sparks a hilarious exploration of how she pulled it off. Jared breaks down the absurdity of the TSA slip-ups and shares his theory: spy vibes or a midlife passion crime?

This week on the JTrain Podcast, Jared is joined by his hilarious longtime friend, comedian GregStone , for a Chit Chat Wednesday that covers everything from musicals to intergalactic invasions.

Jared kicks things off with his current obsession: the cultural fever surrounding Wicked. From there, the conversation transitions into fandoms, with Greg sharing his love for Star Wars and the pair discussing how Family Guy hilariously pokes fun at the plot holes in the beloved franchise through its parody episodes😅

And just when you think things can’t get any more out there, Jared and Greg dive into a hypothetical: what would it really be like if aliens came to Earth? Would humans survive? Thrive? Or be reduced to alien pets?

It’s a fun, unpredictable ride filled with pop culture, laughs, and classic Chit Chat Wednesday chaos. Don’t forget to comment, subscribe, and share your favorite moments from the episode!
